Everolimus (RAD001) in Primary Therapy of Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia

NCT ID: NCT00976248

Last Updated: 2018-10-03

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 33 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2009-11-30
• Study Completion Date: 2018-07-31

Brief Summary

The purpose of this research study is to determine the safety of RAD001(Everolimus) and the highest dose of this drug that can be given to people safely. RAD001(Everolimus) is a drug that works by preventing cells in the body from growing and dividing. Information from basic and Phase I clinical research studies suggests that RAD001 also may help to prevent tumor growth in people with relapsed or refractory lymphoma.

Detailed Description

• Participants will take RAD001 orally once a day in the morning. Each treatment cycle lasts for four weeks. Participants will receive up to 72 cycles of treatment.
• During each cycle, participants will be asked to visit the clinic for scheduled tests and exams. They will visit the clinic on the first day of each of the first three cycles, and then once every 3 cycles. During the visits, participants will have a physical exam and blood tests.. Participants may also have CT scans of the chest, abdomen and pelvis as well as a bone marrow aspirate and biopsy.

• Impairment of gastrointestinal function or gastrointestinal disease that may significantly alter the absorption of RAD001.
• Female patients that are pregnant or breast feeding, or adults of reproductive potential who are not using effective birth control methods.
• Patients with known hypersensitivity to RAD001 or other rapamycins or to its excipients
• Patients with other malignancies within the past 3 years except for adequately treated carcinoma of the cervix or basal or squamous cell of the skin
